FCC STATEMENT
The adapter has been tested and found to comply with the limits for
a class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
¾Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
¾Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
¾Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
¾Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for
help.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference.
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
EC DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY (EUROPE)
In compliance with the EMC Directive 89/336/EEC, the adapter
meets the requirements of the following standards:
¾EN55022
¾EN55024
SAFETY NOTICES
Caution:
Do not use this product near water, for example, in a wet
basement or near a swimming pool.
Avoid using this product during an electrical storm. There may be
a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.

Thank you for purchasing 10/100/1000M Gigabit Ethernet Adapter.
This document provides detailed guidelines to install and use the
adapter for network installers or users. The Giga Ethernet Adapter
is a 32-bit PCI 10/100/1000Mbps NWay Gigabit LAN adapter. The
Giga Ethernet Adapter provides extremely fast data transfer rates
up to 2000Mbps at full duplex mode for high bandwidth usage in
areas such as network servers, workstations, Storage Area
Networks (SANs), Network Attach Storage (NAS) and high-speed
video streaming.
This manual is divided into two chapters and two appendices.
The following summarizes the contents of the chapters and
appendices.
Chapter 1 Introduction
Hardware Overview
The Giga Ethernet Adapter is a highly integrated and cost-effective
single-chip Gigabit Ethernet Adapter that provides 32-bit
performance, PCI bus master capability, and full compliance with
IEEE 802.3 10Base-T, IEEE802.3u 100Base-TX and IEEE
802.3ab 1000Base-T specifications. It also supports ACPI, PCI
power management for modern operating systems that are capable
of Operating System Directed Power Management (OSPM) to
achieve the most efficient power management.
Through the aid of a VLAN membership, The Giga Ethernet
Adapter adheres to the 802.1Q for multiple VLAN support, and

2
802.1P for packet prioritization. With 802.1Q support, server
resources can be shared with multiple VLANs when used in
conjunction with any 802.1Q- enabled Switch. With the 802.1p
support, The Giga Ethernet Adapter allows a range of Ethernet
packets to be prioritized from a critical to a non-critical designation
through a priority tag.
The Giga Ethernet Adapter supports Full Duplex operations at
20/200/2000 Mbps data speeds used in conjunction with 802.3x
flow control support. With 802.3x flow control The Giga Ethernet
Adapter uses both asymmetric and symmetric functions via the
MAC control pause function. Any participating 802.3x flow control
node can be controlled by initiating a pause control to stop incoming
network traffic, to further reduce network congestion.
By default The Giga Ethernet Adapter supports the standard 1518
Byte frame size. In addition, The Giga Ethernet Adapter can also
be configured to use a maximum Jumbo Frame size of up to
7680Bytes.
It includes an interface for a boot ROM and can be used in
diskless workstations, providing maximum network security and
ease of management.
Also, being PCI 2.2 and 2.3 compliant, The Giga Ethernet Adapter
works with 32-bit 33/66MHz PCI busses. This compatibility provides
users with an easy migration path to increase performance
between servers and workstations for large file transfer, video
editing and server clustering for data intensive applications.

Chapter 2 Installation
Card Installation
To insert The Product into your computer, follow the steps list below.
1. Turn off the computer and remove its cover.
2. Insert The Giga Ethernet Adapter into a PCI slot.
3. Fix the Product to the rear of the computer chassis and put
the computer cover in order.
4. Connect the adapter to the network with twisted-pair
cables.
Driver Installation
The required software is in the CD.

Appendix A: Troubleshooting
If you experience any problems with the adapter, first please
confirm that the appropriate driver is loaded properly,and that the
cable is connected to the adapter port soundly. Then check the LED.
The Product provides LEDs to indicate network status.
10 LED, 100 LED, 1000 LED
They all indicate Link/Active/Speed status.
When the 1000 LED is lit, it indicates adapter has been linked to
network with the right speed of 1000Mbps. The flash 1000 LED
indicates data transmission at the responding port.The 10 LED
and 100 LED are similar to the 1000 LED.
FDX LED
It indicates the status that whether or not the adapter works at
full duplex mode. When the LED is lit the adapter works at full
duplex mode . Otherwise the adapter works at half duplex mode.
If you have other questions, please contact our local FAE.
